    True this - when I worked in legal side of things for Courts I do remember a firm of solicitors in the civil side called Wright Hassell. Just about sums up the legal processes in civil side!

    Barnsley signed a player called Willie Waddell from Kilmarnock in the early '70's. My sister thought she was really witty by saying "Of course he will, he's a duck!" every time his name was mentioned and I do mean every time. My Dad & I just shook our heads at her.

    There was a player at Barnsley during the Clarke era called Paul Wigley. Which, in our house, was a polite word for your tadger. Oh, how we laughed. :D

    I always like that Nortei Nortey who played in lower leagues. But as a younger kid I thought Dickov and Shittu were funny.

    When I worked in Barnsley in the 80's at Yorkshire Bank we had a business account for C Soar & Sons. His son was called Ian, so I Soar. A quick check at Companies House shows they are still rocking it.

    Apologies, if anyone on here is associated with them, was just a funny name. No malice intended. It probably made them more memorable TBH.
